Dear All,
Our candidates will be visiting us starting in just over one week. I would like to request that you help the search committee by meeting with and evaluating our candidates. Click the names below to reach their schedule and CV.

Jan 29th-30th
Dr. Allie Gaudinier  <https://docs.google.com/document/d/15vJkmDae3SdJn4QbwqCCqVy69eZimtktEuCFtpYwLm4/edit?usp=sharing>will visit from UC Berkeley where she works on understand plant adaptive shifts in response to abiotic stress using genomic, systems biology, and molecular biology approaches. 

Jan 31st-1st
Dr. Sunil Kenchanmane Raju <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eClUm7_xjeJ3-Bfe1g44S6LO61pbpxW6UgGw6u0jQVg/edit?usp=sharing> will visit from NYU where he is working to develop the wild species and maize relative Tripsacum dactyloides as model to identify the epigenetic and genetic basis of abiotic stress resilience with the aim of translation to sorghum and maize. 

Dr. Amy Lanctot <https://docs.google.com/document/d/11mdFk13WHcvkG-X4oXgyxWwooMKZ5mBJ4y0iaejF1Mc/edit?usp=sharing> will visit from Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory where she works to understand how noncoding sequences specify stable gene expression to engineer and predict transcriptional robustness across species.

Dr. Sassoum Lo  <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jICL7yMXmp9IwHiCtynYh16jQqJU4VAwIo-G7SZzoGo/edit?usp=sharing>will visit from UC Davis where she works to uncover the genetic underpinnings of legume domestication and diversification to develop climate resilient varieties.


Please sign up to meet with our candidates and plan to attend their seminars!

Best,
Dan
